I mean really, I could bring the laptop and re-sync the iPad every few hours once I run out of material to watch. However it would also be nice to either pack the laptop away, or not even bring it along. Plus being geeky it's nice to have a sleek and shiny way to do something.

The Ravpower file hub they discuss is $45 on Amazon.ca.
The Hootoo nano I suggested (similar thing, no battery charging though) is $30.

But yeah... pretty sure you aren't allowed to turn on wifi in the plane to use these file hubs. Might still be a great item to grab for a future road trip though. Or at the very least, ask fam to stream the media off the file hub in the air port, then rely on the media on the ipad during flight?
